Chapter Thirty-Seven: Everyone Who Moves Separately
"Don't worry too much, it may be found by Storm Girl and Phoenix Girl." But Lu Chen himself knew that what he said was just a comfort.
Wolverine knew that the terrain was the fastest to come down, which was why Lu Chen encountered him first on the way back. But when he got down first, he only found one person. It was even more difficult for others to find someone. After all, those students left the collapsed hall first.
Apart from Huo Man and the stopped soldiers, Lu Chen and the other two had not met anyone else, and the contractors on the Iron Fist did not come to hinder Wolverine, which surprised Lu Chen a little, but after thinking about it, Lu Chen understood.
If they formed a team, they could indeed kill Wolverine, but Wolverine's body healing ability was too hard to withstand. Killing Wolverine was not something that could be done in a short time. Therefore, instead of wasting energy on Wolverine, it would be better to deal with other contractors, which would be more efficient.
Therefore, Wolverine was almost unhindered from the soldiers who were protecting themselves while walking, and Lu Chen also benefited a little from it.
As Lu Chen expected, Wolverine was not attacked, but the other two sides were not feeling well. Storm and Phoenix were attacked as soon as they separated. The attackers included not only ordinary soldiers, but also mutants controlled by Shrek, and five contractors with him.
The two teammates of the Storm Fist were attacking the Storm Fist. They were weak and were ordered by the Iron Fist to deal with the weak Storm Fist, but there was also a powerful existence around them.
After being caught by Shrek, Cyclops was also controlled. In the original plot, he was sent to deal with the Phoenix Girl Qin. But he was awakened by Qin with love.
Although the five Iron Fist didn't believe in love, they were afraid of something wrong, so they still asked Cyclops to deal with Storm Girl.
They don't believe that Storm Girl has a leg with Cyclops, which can awaken Cyclops.
However, although Cyclops and those two people are strong, the contractors on Storm Girl are not weak. Although the number of people is small, the advantage of being small is small, and they are much more united than Phoenix Girl.
Especially after the Viper grabbed the Bullet Trio, the few of them became more united.
The invitation from Viper went smoothly. The Bullet Trio and Viper used voice transmission for just a few words and then pulled the Bullet Trio over.
From this perspective, the Viper is quite suitable for being a lobbyist. Of course, the premise of all this is that Lu Chen broke through the extreme value and was completely stronger than the bullet trio. Without Lu Chen's threat, Viper could not win over those three people even if he had broken his mouth.
With Lu Chen as his backing, the poisonous snake moved the three of them at almost no cost, and Lu Chen did not ask for anything from them, but they had to ensure that they would do their best when dealing with the Iron Fist. As long as they did their best, Lu Chen would not attack them in the future.
Lu Chen still attaches great importance to the Iron Fist. Those who have broken through the extreme value cannot look at it based on common sense. Lu Chen doesn't know what he has. To be on the safe side, Lu Chen needs his rear to be safe.
For Lu Chen, although the plot characters hate him very much, they want to rescue Professor X. Therefore, their purpose is consistent with Lu Chen. With their somewhat just approach, Lu Chen does not need to be too prepared.
But the contractors are different. Although the iron fist is also their enemy, they may also surrender to the enemy, as long as the benefits are sufficient.
In order to ensure victory in the battle, Lu Chen must ensure the stability of the rear, and the bullet trio became the target of Lu Chen's fight for. They have good strength and good cooperation. If they go against Lu Chen, Lu Chen will feel very troublesome.
This is the reason why Lu Chen sent a poisonous snake to follow the Storm Girl. Lu Chen's approach was just to ensure safety, but for the bullet trio, this was the moment that determines their fate. If they did not agree to team up with Lu Chen, they understood that Lu Chen would not let them go. The uneasy factor was indeed cleared before the battle. Only when they understood this would they agree so readily.
Moreover, Iron Fist is the common enemy of all contractors, so I also know about this bullet. Therefore, when I signed a non-aggression treaty with Lu Chen, they just need to put in their efforts to deal with Iron Fist, which does not conflict with their own mission.
The signing of this contract made their relationship much better because they were very quick to talk. When the two teammates of Iron Fist came over to snipe with Cyclops, they were facing a united team.
The teammates of Iron Fist suffered a great setback in this battle. As the captain of the X-Men, the Cyclops was very strong, but he was suppressed by the fantasy potion and was a little dizzy and could not fully exert his own strength.
Storm girl resisted him alone. The characters in the plot are of equal strength, and it is the combat effectiveness of the contractor.
They are still very strong when they can form a team with Iron Fist, but in the end they can't beat four hands with two fists. There are four contractors on the Viper side, with bullets attacking with Viper, Man Bull charged forward, and Lelu assisted. The two contractors tried their best but did not rush over.
Seeing that they could not capture it for a long time, they were afraid of something happening, so they retreated, and the poisonous snake and others did not pursue it. They were not familiar with this underground base at all. The pursuit may lead to a trap by mistake, and the principle is to move forward steadily.
The Storm Girl survived the attack safely, but the Phoenix Girl was different.
Although she has many teammates, she is not united at all. It would be fine if she just did this. After all, those contractors are not fools. Although they are not united, they also know that they should cooperate to fight.
But the military advisor who was sent to Iron Fist by Kuangdao was not a person who could deal with it easily. As a senior contractor, he also knew what would happen if there were more contractors.
Therefore, he did not attack with all his might, giving other contractors the opportunity to join forces. Instead, he relied on his familiarity with the base and kept launching sneak attacks on them from all directions.
In this way, although all the contractors could not be killed, the Phoenix Girl's footsteps were delayed, and more importantly, their unfamiliarity also made them difficult because of this attack method.
Because they are not teammates who have worked together for a long time, their skills are not too familiar with each other and their fighting style is not very clear.
When you see the enemy, those who are close to fight want to charge forward. Range bomb directly with spells. If it is a team that has been working for a long time, this way of dealing with it is very good. However, for an unfamiliar team, ranged skills may not hit the enemy and fall on the teammates instead.
In this way, in the chaos, he was raided by two bald men and military advisors, and the Phoenix Girl's team suffered casualties and several contractors died.
Another thing that was surprising was that in the chaotic battle, the flood gate of this base was affected. Like the original plot, the base was about to be flooded.
Lu Chen didn't know about this. In his thoughts, since the contractor knew about such a thing, it should have stopped the Phoenix Girl, but what he could not have imagined was that the people on the Iron Fist did not send Cyclops over, so the Phoenix Girl had no impulse in his emotions, but others destroyed the base due to the chaos.
After this accident, the contractor immediately stepped back. Even if they were as strong as them, if they had no special bloodline, they would be washed away by the flood.
However, Professor X has not been rescued yet. If General Shrek's plan succeeds, even if they escape the attack of the flood, they will have no way to die. Therefore, although they are thinking of retreating, they are still searching underground.
But this time, their speed was much faster and they were urging the Phoenix Girl to speed up their actions. They put aside their search for students, and they didn't want to die here.
Of course, the Phoenix Girl would not want to give up the students like this, but the advantage of the large number of contractors played a role at this moment. There was only one Phoenix Girl, and even if several contractors died, there were still several.
Some of them are also very eloquent, and they directly explained the truth to the Phoenix Girl and talked about the overall situation.
"Professor Qin, I know you want to save these students, but now it is the key to rescue Professor X. If Shrek's plan is successful, even if they are rescued, it will not be the result of death."
"Yes, Professor Qin, and then death will not be one or two. How many mutants in the world will die because of this."
"We know you are not afraid of death, but you think about other mutants in the world. They are innocent. Do you want to watch all the innocent mutant compatriots die?"
"Let's go, professor, we know you're very uncomfortable, but the current situation is no longer enough for us to hesitate."
Although the contractors said that the Phoenix Girl did not like it, she knew that what they said was right. If Professor X was not rescued, everything would be over. Therefore, although the Phoenix Girl was heartbroken, she finally compromised and did not look for those students anymore, and moved forward with all her strength.
However, Storm Girl was still looking for those students as always. They didn't know that the base would be flooded. In fact, the contractors had a lot of communication equipment in their hands. The Bullet Trio should have communication with other contractors.
But when they returned to the team from the town where Magneto was imprisoned, they were already isolated, and the other contractors did not give them any communication props.
It is also because the contractors did not keep their promises first, and the three bullets agreed to the recruitment of the poisonous snake so easily. You are unkind and I am unrighteous. This is the contractor's approach. In the space, no one will give you any kind of complaints.
Because of the speed of travel, the bald and the military advisor were in a little embarrassed. They were not able to arrange other means. The group of contractors accidentally made their situation much easier.
Soon, at a turn, they met Lu Chen and Wolverine.
Because Lu Chen used the blur skill, he ran directly from the wall to the bottom, while Wolverine was very familiar with the terrain and came down one step faster than others.
So the first person Lu Chen met from below was Wolverine, because the Phoenix Girl's speed became faster, and they were the ones he met in the second team.
Seeing them, Lu Chen and Wolverine also saw their anxious expressions. Wolverine asked, and they told Wolverine everything. In fact, Lu Chen was next to him. The other contractors did not want Lu Chen to know about the accident, but it would not be possible to not say it out. It is impossible to conceal it. After all, the Phoenix Girl is a witness to everything, and she could not hide it from Wolverine.
"Just because of your mistakes, you want to abandon other students. Humph, what you said is so impressive."
After knowing the reasons, Wolverine also knew that they were not going to look for other students, which made him a little angry, but he was a soldier before, and there were more helpless sacrifices in the army than this. He had fought a war, and many teammates died because they covered their retreat.
Therefore, he knew what to do now. Although he was angry, he did not propose to go back to find the students. He just wanted to find the students after rescuing Professor X in his heart.
After knowing the situation, Lu Chen directly contacted the poisonous snake with his mental power, told her everything here, so that she could speed it down and stop looking for those students.
Although this base is very large, it was very scattered to find the student contract just now, but the main reason is that it has many layers, the straight line distance is not far away, and the mental power can break through the entity. Therefore, when I saw the Phoenix Girl, Lu Chen could already sense the Storm Girl and let them come down.
Although Lu Chen had notified the poisonous snake, he did not want to wait for them to come down, but took Wolverine and others to the place guarded by Iron Fist. The matter is really urgent now. One is that he doesn't know how long the dam above can last, and the other is that he doesn't know how long the professor x can last.
If Professor X can't hold on, Lu Chen will be in danger. Although he has a helmet and there is no specific punishment for the tasks given by the space, others are different. They will definitely die. If they die, Lu Chen will not feel good. After all, Tiequan and others are obviously having a deal with Shrek. They will not die after all, but Lu Chen will fight five.
However, Lu Chen didn't care much about the collapse of the dam. He had his own way to deal with it. In fact, even if the contractors around the Phoenix Girl did not act, Lu Chen would find an opportunity to destroy the dam and let who would pour it in. This is the best way to force those contractors.
There is a life threat, and there is no fear that they will not work. At the same time, this is Lu Chen's counterattack when he is desperate. If he fails to stop Shrek's plan, Lu Chen will destroy the dam by himself and let the water from the dam be poured into the base, and try to kill the Iron Fist and the others.
Of course, someone has done it for him now, so Lu Chen doesn't have to worry anymore. He led the way, and Lu Chen is also thinking about other things. It's not to be continued.
